Are Property Taxes Deductible in Mississippi?
Short answer: Yes on your federal return if you itemize, within the $40,400 SALT cap. Mississippi adds its own break: owners 65+ or totally disabled pay no property tax on the first $7,500 of assessed value (about $75,000 of home value).
Homestead: regular homestead exemption: tax credit up to $300 for owner-occupants under 65, based on assessed value. Mississippi homestead applications are filed with the county tax assessor by April 1.
Records to keep: Keep receipts, statements, and a note of what each cost was for. Compare itemizing to the 2026 standard deduction ($16,100 single / $32,200 joint) before you claim.
